Keiko’s Room #34 Live Broadcast Birthday Special with Hikaru!
Ohhh! This was a lot of fun. Keiko started by singing “Yoru no Uso to”. I think I preferred the version from her fan club event but it was a neat intro. She got a huge Sabon adventcalendar with bath and body products. Looks fancy and costs around €100. Also, I am noticing that Hikaru is wearing her Kalafina pinky ring (just like Keiko always does). Dammit, I think I will have no choice but to buy it when I am in Japan (even though it’s currently quite expensive T_T). LOL at Hikaru wanting to introduce herself b some people might not know her. Keiko is like, “there’s literally no need since everyone knows who you are XD” They gathered a ton of questions but they barely got through any of them. Seems like Hikaru is still a big fan of potatoes and chicken whereas Keiko is all about red meat (and zero carbs as we all know). They started talking about potatoes because fans keep posting potato emojis instead of clapping emojis (it’s a joke among those who regularly watch Keiko’s Insta Lives where she once mistook the clapping emoji for a potato). As expected there is some anime talk but Hikaru hasn’t had much time recently to watch anything new so she doesn’t really have any good recommendations for Hikaru. They talk about what sort of animal they see each other as. Hikaru describes Keiko as squirrel and Keiko chooses a seal for Hikaru. When asked about each other’s favourite song, Hikaru says “Hitori Janai Kara” and it seems like Keiko’s favourite song in Hikaru’s album is “Ambient Border”, quite unexpected. I am so excited to hear it live during the Dec 17 event! Hikaru also confirmed that she will be wearing her stage outfit which will 100% kill me :P
Keiko and Hikaru did a handful of Kalafina acappella covers. BANZAI!

Gaming Notebook computers - THE FINAL Thing YOU NEED TO Check Before YOU GET One
เกม pc -  Purchasing any style or sort of notebook computer could be a harrowing encounter, but investing in a game playing notebook could be doubly annoying, especially if you are not a technical geek monitoring all the most current gizmos hitting the marketplace. You can find merely consequently a lot of things to examine... Processor, RAM, Design, Hard Drive, Show Resolution... prior to deciding to also reach look at the look and feel of one's innovative notebook computer.
Gaming laptops happen to be doubly frustrating as you need a powerful machine which is capable of enjoying all the most up-to-date video games. You will need to choose a notebook which includes high-end design and high-end processors unless you desire to be disappointed. Unfortunately, generally, all of this high-end performance should come at reduced and you'll have to shell out more for just a gaming rig.
Perhaps, the main factor you ought to be looking at may be the Design GPU or Credit card. This feature will largely regulate how well your brand-new laptop are designed for and process those new games. Many gamers opt for the most recent ATI or Nvidia design potato chips, typically the best doing credit card their spending budget allows. You will need to check the video RAM your graphics card in addition has, this can support your game titles efficiently manage extra.
Of course, perhaps probably the most high-end design chip is unproductive unless you have the handling muscle to take care of it. That is why most gamers search for laptops with the most recent processors... the better the better generally. We've quad center processors but take into account that some older video gaming were developed and run much better on dual center processors. However, just about all gamers appear towards the brand new Intel i3, i5, i7 processors to clothes their video gaming rigs. Those on your golf ball actually, can look for the brand new Intel Sandy Bridge processor chip.
RAM can be another feature several gamers look at before they purchase their laptops. You'll want enough RAM if you'd like your laptop to perform smoothly and deal with all your software. Although it is definitely achievable to possess very much Ram memory also, some gamers future-proof their laptop computers by getting just as much RAM because they can afford. It's also advisable to examine the "speed" of one's RAM as this may change lives in how quick your personal computer will run.
The scale and kind of Hard Drive could very well be of lesser significance compared with another things mentioned previously nevertheless, you must look at the speed of one's hard drive, 7200 rpm will undoubtedly be more rapidly than 5200 rpm. Remember, lots of the latest gaming rigs feature a SSD or Solid State Drive that is such as a flash drive and because it does not have any moving parts, is known as to become more reliable.
Many gamers likewise check the sizing and resolution of one's laptop's display, the entire 1080p HIGH RES being your supreme goal. Several as well opt for a Blu-Ray Disk drive should they are able it. Why accept anything but the very best.
Now, once you've deemed every one of the above specifications and functions, you're not performed yet. Not by way of a long shot. Due to the fact there is yet another very important matter you must check out before you get that gaming laptop computer. That important matter is...
HEAT
Or instead how effectively the notebook you're considering, are designed for warmth or overheating. Gaming laptops by their very nature create a complete large amount of heat, especially when they're put to the max with extreme game playing. The laptop computer you're considering should be able to cope with this temperature with enthusiasts or by displacing/tossing heat out... normally your laptop computer only will overheat and quickly turn off.
So before you get that gaming notebook computer, you must determine if your unique design possesses any overheating problems or issues. One of the better ways to do that is by using the various search engines (Google, Bing, Yahoo) to check on to see if you can find pages and pages of overheating complaints together with your laptop model. Merely enter "model x overheating difficulties" "model x heating system problems" into Search engines to begin with to see what arises. If you can find hundreds, thousands of complaints even, next think about getting that one mobile computer version. You don't desire to end up investing in a $4000 radiator. Ouch.
Do not get burnt, have a look at any heating problems before you get that gaming mobile computer. Make it the final thing you take a look at before you get.
